I'm not sure if this is still an issue for you, but I see no answers,
so I'll add a couple cents...
Just checked the size:
====================
wget --spider http://bg1.mirror.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/cdimages/ubuntu/release/R14.0.2/tde-ubuntu-14.04-desktop-r14.0.2-amd64.iso
2>&1 |grep Length
Length: 1309296640 (1.2G) [application/x-iso9660-image]
====================
It seems the image is correctly 2k aligned. Have you verified the
checksum after downloading it?
